COTTON AM> THE ACREAGE.
Department of Agriculture Issues Figures
on the (ironing Crop.
Cotton production this year is forr
cast at 10,986,000 equivalent 500pound
bales by the; department of agriculture,
basing its estimates ui
June 25 condition of the growing
crop, which was 70 per cent, of
normal, and an area of 33,960,000
acres under cultivation on that date.
WThe acreage and condition on June
25 by states! follows:
Virginia 38,000 acres, and condition
82.
North Carolina 1,454,000 and 83.
South Carolina 2,706,000 abd 78.
Georgia 5,262,000 and 72.
Florida 122,000 and 57.
Alabama 2,990,000 and 67.
Mississippi 2,939,000 and 63.
. Louisiana 1,445,000 and 61.
Texas 10,755,000 and 69.
Arkansas 2,7.01,000 -and 64.
Missouri 124,000 and 60.
Oklahoma 2,456,000 and 69.
Arizona 115,000 and 93.
All other states 15,000 and 100.
Production last year was 12,000,000,
bales, two years ago 11.302,000,
three years ago 11,450,000
and four years ago 11,190,000.
This year's area under cultivation
June 25 compares with 37,073,000
acres under cultivation that date last
year and 35,890,000 acres picked.
The June 25 condition compares
with 75.6 per cent, of normal condition
on May 25 this year, 85.8 per
cent on June last year and 80.3 per
cent, the average condition for the
last ten years on June 25.
The condition reported today forecasts
a yield of 156.4 pounds per
acre and the forecast of total production
on that basis allows 1 per cent
from the planted area for abandonment.
The final out turn will prob
ably be larger or smaller than the
amount forecast as conditions hereafter
are better or worse than the
average.
Sea island production was foreca'st
at 15.000 bales and Egyptian at 45.000
bales, making a total of 50.000
bales compared with 88,395 bales
last year.
A heavy decrease in sea island acre,
age was reported because of boll weevil
activities. Sea island and Egyptian
acreage this year is 162,000 acres or
which 65.000 is sea island compared
with a combined acreage of 258,000
last year.
Sea island acreage and production
forecast by states follows:
Georgia 25,000 acres and 6.000
bales.
Florida 200,000 and 2,000.
South Carolina 20,000 and 7,000
Many counties have abandoned
planting of sea island this year be
cause of the boll weevils, which hav
now spread over the entire sea island
producing section.

son of B. B. Hair, was shot and fatally
wounded here last night by G.

for a burglar a party or ^hich Kinard

Hair and several young people were
at the home of a friend opposite the
store of Mr. Kinard when they noticed
three men go behind Mr. Kinard's
establishment and latifc- heard them
break in the store. Several men, in
eluding Mr. Kinard, who had been
notified, surrounded the building t<
capture the burglars and when ?
Hair came around thdt corner Mr. Kinaid
shot him with a shotgun thinking
him -as one oi' the burglars.
The load took effect in the abdomen,
puncturing the intestines over
100 times. Ycu:.g Hair was given first
aid by local physicians and later rush
ed to a Coiu..ibia hospital for un oj.
eration. AfU* stitching 93 puncture:
in the abdomen doctors at the Co
lumbia Hospital saw there was nt
chance for thewo unded man and
gave up hope. He died about 10
o'clock this morning, a message tf
relatives statcfl. All efforts to save
his life were made, but the intestine
and stomach were literally torn i
pieces, making it impossible to sa'<
him.
Mr. Hair was one of the most po?
ular young men of the communi
and has many friends who are gvirver*
at the accident. He was a member o
the Eighty-first Division and server
in France. He only rt.lun.ed from
foreign soil last week and had beer
at home just a few days. Mr. Kii:a>-.
